Experience: 8+ years of experience building and shipping software, with a proven ability to handle large-scale projects
Top Dog in Tech: Fluency in Python and/or JavaScript (React), with a curiosity to learn new tools and frameworks
Data Whisperer: Expertise in databases, APIs, and designing for scale and performance

What the job involves

You’ll take ownership of major product areas—designing, building, and improving the tools that help veterinary clinics streamline operations, deliver exceptional patient care, and optimize their supply chains

At Vetcove, engineers work across the stack and have a holistic view of the platform. You’ll have the opportunity to work closely with users, influence the product roadmap, and make a real difference in an industry that impacts millions of animals and their caregivers
Lead the Pack: Take ownership of key product areas, guiding their design, development, and delivery to success
Paws-On Features: Create user-focused features, from polished interfaces to high-performance backend services
Mentor the Pack: Share knowledge, set high standards for technical decisions, and help your teammates grow
Chase the Tough Problems: Dive into challenging issues, from debugging elusive bugs to optimizing high-volume queries
Collaborate Across the Kennel: Work closely with product, design, and operations teams to align on priorities and deliver impact

Our take

Purchasing inventory for veterinary hospitals can be time-consuming and expensive, as finding the best prices requires a lengthy process of researching suppliers and comparing their prices. Whilst some comparison tools do exist for veterinary organizations, existing solutions do not take into account custom negotiations, GPOs, or corporating pricing schemes, limiting the thoroughness of comparisons.

Vetcove provides an online marketplace for veterinary hospital inventory procurement, allowing clinics to reduce ordering times and costs through its free service. The company achieves this by allowing users to link their existing vendor accounts and list their custom pricing arrangements, helping inform a more accurate comparison ecosystem and boost supplier sales, whilst resolving supply chain limitations.

Whilst veterinary organizations already have access to the suppliers provided on Vetcove’s marketplace, the company stands out by integrating custom pricing arrangements into the comparison ecosystem, helping to provide a more holistic and accurate overview of supply chain inventories and costs. Whilst the marketplace is free for veterinary clinics and organizations, the company charges suppliers to be listed.
